The Mobile Internet Extranet LiFi Access (MIELA) System By PoE-Tic
Today, we are going to talk about the The Mobile Internet LiFi Access (MIELA) made by PoE-Tic in collaboration with Signify. We will discuss about the company PoE-Tic, its CEO and founder and the MIELA system.
PoE-Tic
PoE-Tic was founded in 2019. PoE-Tic offers its expertise in the implementation of alternative wireless infrastructures: BPL and BPL/LiFi (PoE-BPL and PoE-LiFi).
To limit radio waves in schools or hospitals, PoE-Tic has designed an exclusive device -PoE-Sea- which allows teachers to cut WiFi terminals at the end of a teaching activity; in accordance with the legislation (Bee law).
To completely eliminate electromagnetic emissions, PoE-Tic has selected the best LiFi offers that use light to transmit data bidirectionally, with an upload speed of around 100 Mbps.
The BPL (Broadband over Power Lines) or Courant Porteur pro broadcasts broadband access through power outlets or the lighting circuit. This high-performance technology significantly facilitates the networking of LiFi and/or WiFi wireless access points by avoiding the need to pull RJ45 or FO cables.
Industries (M2M, IoT), the Smart City, schools or hospitals as well as businesses are among the sectors where the demand for alternative connectivity solutions is growing the fastest.
With the credit of its founder, Dominique Le Bourse, several hundred schools and numerous installations in industrial and hospital environments; PoE-Tic transmits its know-how to its partners.
Approved under the “PoE-T” brand; these installers, resellers and integrators established in France take advantage of these innovative alternative technologies by bringing added value to their own offers to win and retain new customers: JOIN THEM NOW!
The CEO and Founder of PoE-Tic
Dominique Le Bourse is the CEO and Founder of Poe-Tic. He is also a LiFi expert and the Designer and Manufacturer of PoE-Sea and MIELA: both innovative devices to moderate or totally suppress the exposure of young pupils to radio waves.
Dominique Le Bourse is an experienced Sales Manager with a demonstrated history of working in the information technology and services industry as well as skilled in Partner Relationship Management, Go-to-market Strategy, Management, Product Marketing.
He is an expert in alternative networks such as CPL pro, BPL (Broadband over Power Lines), BPL/WiFi, BPL/LiFi and LiFi.
We asked Mr Dominique Le Bourse some few additional questions about its company and the MIELA product.
Question 1. Could you tell me more about your business?
Dominique Le Bourse: I integrate, design and manufacture solutions and products that decrease or eliminate radiowaves in 1st degree schools.
There is a specific law in France called “Loi Abeille – the name of the ecological deputy” that requires WiFi to be switch off at the end of pedagogic activities.

Though it is in French.
Question 5. How did the idea of MIELA came to be?
Dominique Le Bourse: LiFi is expensive for collectivities in charge of school equipment. Equipment installation in ceiling of classrooms can be very costly. Comparing with the use of mobile furniture that houses tablets, I had the idea to actualize a LiFi connection by transforming fixed installation into a mobile one.
I contacted some LiFi manufacturers and an industrial specialist in medical furniture. I wanted something looking as a pole of perfusion that would be able to rolling and passing doors.
Question 6. What about your partnership with Signify to produce MIELA?
Dominique Le Bourse: I had the chance to meet the right guy in Signify that trusted in that “exotic” idea.
Question 7. Do you have a website about your products?
Dominique Le Bourse: yes, I do have a website, www.poe-tic.com
MIELA System
The sobriety of radio waves in motion
PoE-Tic develops and integrates alternative wireless network infrastructures that limit cabling work and guarantee sobriety, or even total suppression of radio waves.
World leader in lighting, Signify has designed the Trulifi offer which allows transmit high-speed data LiFi, with a bandwidth of around 150 Mbps.
PoE-Tic and Signify have combined their know-how to meet connectivity and mobility needs in environments that must be free of radio frequencies. This is how the MIELA was born; innovative LiFi equipment that combines Mobility, Sobriety and Scalability.
Mobility : Easily move your wireless LiFi Access Point, depending on your connectivity needs.
Sobriety: Communicate in non-visible light (IR), without any exposure to electromagnetic fields, in reference to the Bee law of February 9, 2015.
Scalability: Evaluate the advantages of LiFi in a mobile version, before opting for connected, low-energy LED lighting that will cover all of your buildings.
What does the Bee Law (Loi Abeille) say?
LAW n° 2015-136 of February 9, 2015 relating to sobriety, transparency, information and consultation in terms of exposure to electromagnetic waves - known as the Bee law (Loi Abeille), named after the deputy Laurence Abeille whose scope states in article 7 (excerpt):
I. - [...] the installation of fixed terminal equipment equipped with wireless access [Wi-Fi, editor's note] to the internet is prohibited in spaces dedicated to the reception, rest and activities of children under three years old.
II. - In primary school classes, wireless access [...] is disabled when not in use for digital educational activities.
III. - In primary schools, any new installation of a radio network is subject to prior information from the school council.
THE CONCEPT OF MIELA
An Access Point is embedded inside the MIELA.
Three transceivers are placed at the top of the device which communicate with the USB keys connected to each workstation.
The Access Point is interconnected to the local wired network (RJ45) or via a Power Line Carrier (CPL) terminal supplied as an option.
The MIELA is height adjustable from 1.40 to 2.50 m to make it easier to pass through doors.
Once fully deployed, the MIELA covers an area of about twenty m² in which a maximum of sixteen users can share the high-speed LiFi connection. An optimal speed of 150/140 Mbps is obtained at 1.20 m from the USB key when the MIELA is set at 1.80 m from the ground; with a 60 cm worktop.
MIELA TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Trulifi configuration (starter kit): an Access Point, three transceivers and a USB key.
Number of connections per MIELA: a maximum of 16 Trulifi 6002 USB sticks can be managed by one Access Point.
Electrical protection: chassis electrical socket with switch + 16 A circuit breaker.
Wired network connection: RJ45 frame F/F socket.
Height (min / max): 1.40 / 2.50 m.
Dimensions of the mobile base: 55 x 55 cm
Wheels Type: Four Ø 95 mm wheels, two of which are fitted with a brake.
Total weight: 24 kg.
PLC configuration (optional): a Dinrail G.hn or HPAV2 module.
Main advantages
As stated by Dominique Le Bourse, the MIELA makes it possible to have a LiFi wireless connection as close as possible to the users, without the need to carry out costly and tedious preliminary work. In addition, compatibility with PLC allows the MIELA to have broadband access to all power outlets, without any additional wiring.
Thanks to MIELA, nurseries, neighborhood centres, kindergartens and maternity rooms now have a wireless connection that fully complies with legislation.
Thus, whether for budgetary or health reasons or simply as a precautionary principle, the MIELA is a major asset for adopting LiFi technology without delay.

What is LiFi?
LiFi, also known as "Light Fidelity" is a wireless optical networking technology, which uses light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to transmit data. In 2011, professor Harald Haas made a LiFi demonstration at the TED (Technology, Entertainment, Design) Global Talk on Visible Light Communication (VLC).
VLC uses light as a medium to deliver high-speed communication like Wi-Fi and complies with the IEEE standard IEEE 802.15.7. The IEEE 802.15.7 is a high-speed, bidirectional, and fully networked wireless communication technology-based standard similar to Wi-Fi's IEEE 802.11.
How does LiFi work?
LiFi is a high speed, bidirectional, and fully networked wireless communication of data using light. LiFi constitutes of several light bulbs that form a wireless network.
When an electrical current goes through to a LED light bulb, a stream of light (photons) emits from the lamp. LED bulbs are semiconductor devices, which means that the brightness of the light flowing through them can change at extremely high speeds. The signal is sent by modulating the light at different rates. The signal can then be received by a detector that interprets the changes in light intensity (the signal) as data. Also when the LED is ON, you transmit a digital 1, and when it is OFF, you transmit a 0.
LiFi Benefits
The primary benefits of LiFi are as follows:
• Security: Provides entirely secure access. Where there is no light there is no data.
• Safety: Does not produce electromagnetic radiation and does not interfere with existing electronic systems.
• Localisation: Allows localisation due to the small coverage area of LiFi access point - localisation can be used for very precise asset tracking.
• Data density: Provides ubiquitous high-speed wireless access that offers substantially greater data density (data rate per unit area) than RF through high bandwidth reuse.
